Brief Description: Fabricate and Install the Elevato rControl Stop
Using the bevel gauge method to check, hold the elevator at its up travel limit of 23° and mark the location of the aft face of Bulkhead E onto the elevator pushrod with a felt-tip pen. Then hold the elevator at its down travel limit of 20° and make a similar mark on the pushrod. These marks will be used to position the bellcrank after the stabilizer/elevator assembly has been removed so that the elevator limit stops can be adjusted. Disconnect the elevator pushrod from the control horns and remove the stabilizer/ elevator assembly from the airplane. Next, disconnect the control cables from the elevator bellcrank by removing the clevis pins that secure the ends of the cables to the control cable attach tabs. Remove the bellcrank from the airplane by disconnecting the pushrod and removing the pivot bolt. Remove the cable attach tabs and associated hardware from the bellcrank. Use a bandsaw to cut the plate out from the .125" X 6" X 12" aluminum sheet [108]. File or sand the edges smooth.
